Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Overrated and overhyped
Excellent but underrated film
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Viago, Deacon, and Vladislav are vampires who are finding that modern life has them struggling with the mundane - like paying rent, keeping up with the chore wheel, trying to get into nightclubs, and overcoming flatmate conflicts. Taika Waititi is neither of a good actor and especially not a good director and his work in the completely unfunny mess Thor Ragnarok proves that completely. This is a horror comedy that is neither amusing or even cool enough to give it a rent or at least a simple watch online. Definitely a horrible mess of a comedy. (0/10)
A hilarious mockumentary about lifestyles of four vampires who are flatmates. Makes fun about all the vampire tropes and stereotypes, while at the same time celebrating them. The humor is spot on and the effects are actually pretty good and/or funny!
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't type coz I am still laughing! Love all the vampires! Hilarious dialogue! I'm still laughing!
A man who has rocketed to mainstream fame with 'Thor: Ragnarok', however I find his previous lesser known work to be more enthralling and creatively unique. A faux documentary of a small group of vampires who share a house together. We view their nightly lives but also welcoming a new younger member to the vampiric clan. Have you ever wondered what vampires get up to except sleeping in coffins and drinking the blood of a virgin? Well, this film explores that in the best way possible: comedically. There's nothing funny about a vampire...but a vampire residing in New Zealand? That's a whole different story. It's impossible not to admire the type of eccentric humour that is put into Waititi's films. Quick, sharp and full of wit, the dialogue remains intelligent throughout without having to resort to slapstick. Burst veins causing blood to spray, bat fights, werewolf clans and even the hierarchal structure of master and familiar. Traditional vampiric routines with a hint of edgy fun. Also liked the reference to other vampire films like 'The Lost Boys' and the horrifically terrible 'Twilight'. Did I laugh all the way through? No. Is it as funny as everyone claims it to be? Definitely not. Though the creativity in every scene makes the flick scarily entertaining. Waititi, Clement and Brugh have fang-tastic on screen chemistry. The costume design was authentic, heck even the visual effects were pretty decent considering the low budget. A nice short runtime results in a consistent pace that moves along rapidly. I would've liked to have seen more of a plot offered to keep me enthralled, but I appreciate the direction Waititi and Clement took. A fun intriguing look into the life of a vampire with plenty of comedic wit, albeit slightly overrated. Atleast I laughed at this, shows that I have more life than a vampire!
